I love how his hat got blown off.

Been there, done that. Love that site.

Old Kelvinator plant on Clyde Park? On the track/branch that used to run from the end of the City Market spur to Burton on the GDLK(NYC). One leg ran on the west end of the property and tied into the old interurban RoW. The other ran on the east side where you can still see rail in the parking lot,...

No.

Somewhere in west Michigan. Old spur running into the building probably hasn't been used in my lifetime (I'll be 57 this year). Rails are also buried in the parking lot running along the drive to the left.

I'm sure this is probably an easy one for some people here.

Frozen frosted brown sugar cinnamon pop tarts are the bomb! Meh. Frosted raspberry fresh out of the toaster for me. :D https://www.poptarts.com/en_US/products/all-flavors/pop-tarts-frosted-raspberry-product.html Neither. Strawberry. Definitely strawberry second when raspberry isn't available.

First time hearing of MMMM was on Facebook yesterday. Sounds like a really cool place and I don't how its existence has eluded me all my life, especially since I've driven by it or ridden by it in a car dozens of times in my life.

William Post, inventor of the Pop-Tart, dead at 96.

Awesome photo JT

Thanks. I randomly arrived at Trowbridge and put my drone up in the air a minute before the EB BNSF train arrived...and I had no idea there was CSX train waiting to cross the diamond. Score! (terrible lighting, though)

The EB signals for both lines are close enough to the diamonds that they won't be in the way of the reconstruction. CSX's is on the south-side of the tracks, so with a likelihood of construction trucks and etc possibly/probably using that lot to get in and out as needed, they won't have to pass by ...

I was just asking a question, yall dont gotta be so rude

Take a moment to yourself and have a rational thought. Do you REALLY think if this happened your "buddy" would be the first one telling you, instead of seeing that info posted here first by those in the know?

Come on, don't be so naive.

Grand Elk horns heard south of GR at 12:20pm. Presumably northbound.

Just heard Grand Elk’s horn off in the distance. Not sure if they are headed into Grand Rapids or out.

Country singer Toby Keith dead at 62.

RIP MC5 guitarist Wayne Kramer. Such an influential band and guitar player. Hard to find a band who doesn’t cite him as an influence

I prefer faster drying paste as well.

Keep in mind there is no single spot to sit in New Buffalo to be able to see both CSX and Amtrak/NS, and you might have several hours of nothing. Rubbish! Just hang out on the shoulder of the WB overpass of 94 and you’ll catch all the action of both railroads. :lol: 5B051A2D-02C4-4C02-AD8E-CBA86D24...

Dude I am not from Battle Creek, yes I have good train action in Battle Creek but the people around were really sketchy.

Right, because every inch of Battle Creek that has railroad tracks through it is filled with sketchy people.
